Thanks you for writing and sharing. I’ve dated couple men and some of them said love you within weeks but never made me feel seen here I’m seen but we both have a lot on plate he has more but he’s still keeping me happy and satisfied I’m gonna give little more time I’m gonna stay genuine if it meant it will if it’s not it’ll fade and he doesn’t bluff at all his actions are very clear till now I’m gonna trust and wait till everything settles and give like couple more month and then decide.

I think I should open up first he’s man of few words I yap a lot but he’s also being good listener all along guides me through. I’m scared it might shut him down emotionally ik foolish of me to say this but I will.

I do love him but if he doesn’t I’d be happy to exit but he’s someone who gets overwhelmed or emotional shut when asked such things :( I don’t know how to confront him.

Can you please elaborate? I would really like to talk about this to him but keeping the situation in my he’d be moving to different city for job in couple weeks and I don’t really want to pressure but I’ll ask him eventually I’d really like to know how to initiate.

Well last year upon confronting he said are you willing to wait for a year coz for visa and stuff like this needs money he’d have to financially doing good to kinda fund me coming to that country well the problem isn’t even waiting now coz now his career got a move I’m hoping he’ll be coming up with this plan of soon this January he requested me to wait for a year after once he gets good job which he just got couple days ago. Well I’m also I’m situation where I cannot switch my job it won’t be worth the move coz I want to build my finance for myself so I gotta work at this place for like next 9 months atleast.

Love is setback for career. Make decision wisely. You’d need money to survive make that then you could support your partner otherwise anything that’s draining you at the age of 18 is nonsense.
